Refer to Medium's API documentation for more information about the service.

Using API access token

To configure this credential, you'll need:

• An API Access Token: Generate a token in Settings > Security and apps > Integration tokens. Use the integration token this generates as your n8n Access Token.

Refer to the Medium API Self-issued access tokens documentation for more information.

Using OAuth2

To configure this credential, you'll need:

• A Client ID
• A Client Secret

To generate a Client ID and Client Secret, you'll need access to the Developers menu. From there, create a new application to generate the Client ID and Secret.

Use these settings for your new application:

• Select OAuth 2 as the Authorization Protocol
• Copy the OAuth Callback URL from n8n and use this as the Callback URL in Medium.
